Vintage Lingerie Hit The Runway At Art Of Fashion

Angela of Dorothea’s Closet sent me these cool snaps taken at her lingerie show at the Art of Fashion runway show (from the 2008 Des Moines tattoo Festival). When she sent them, she said:

I was asked to do part of a fashion show at the Iowa Tattoo Festival, and decided lingerie would be perfect! I had my stylists do BIG BIG 60s Fredericks of Hollywood hair, lots of eyeliner and the song they walked to was “Boobs” by Ruth Wallis. Pillow fight w/ feathers flying at the end……the crowd ate it up!

Great Post! Wow! I wish I could of attended! Allow me to quickly introduce myself. My name’s Tia and I’m Online Marketing and PR Specialist at Expansion Plus (PR Agency). I’m also the Community Manager for an online lingerie store called Herroom. I truly believe that undergarments play a huge role in fashion. Undergarments definitely help to boost your body. Wouldn’t

And Joe, that ensemble IS harem pants and a cropped top a la Jeannie….the pants are sheer and have black lace insets where panties would be worn! A super cool set, I’ll try to get it onto my website soon (dorotheasclosetvintage.com).

Do you like vintage lingerie? Does chiffon make you swoon? This place will keep you busy for a long time! The author posts a lot of pictures of old lingerie ads, current retro lingerie, and such. There is also a nod to vintage erotica and a lot of good humor as well. An example of this was the commentary on an old bullet bra photo, "It's difficult to say which is pointier in this vintage lingerie photo: the heels, bullet bra tips, or the eyeliner corners." I'm sure that if I chased down all the links provided here, I'd be busy for quite awhile. An enjoyable read with lots of neat pics.
